High School

For the first time in 274 days the Liberty Minutemen got to collide with players in opposing uniforms on the football field on Saturday August 11. Liberty hosted the William Fleming Colonels and the defending 2A State Chmapions, Appomattox County Raiders in a Jamboree on the Minutemen’s home turf.

Most high school football teams have their first scrimmage of the season against a local team, a team within about 50 miles of their location. Adopting the philosophy of “Go big or go home,” the Jefferson Forest Cavaliers certainly went big. The team traveled 437 miles south to take on the South Effingham Mustangs in Guyton, Georgia on Friday, August 8.

Goode U10 and U12 Soccer Teams went undefeated for their second seasons.

The U10 Strikers and U10 Kickers soccer team coached by Zac Thomas and Hannah Bowyer played eight regular season games throughout Bedford County, ending the season 8-0. The leading scorer for the Strickers was Mason Davidson with 21 goals. The leading scorer for the Kickers team during the season was Jordan Carey with 22 goals.
